💡 Expert Tip
CSIR-CIMFR's selection process has three stages: Trade Test → Written Exam (Paper-I) → Written Exam (Paper-II & III). Here's the critical part most candidates miss: Paper-II and Paper-III are evaluated ONLY if you clear the minimum threshold in Paper-I (Mental Ability Test). However, the final merit list is based ONLY on Paper-II + Paper-III marks — Paper-I does not count toward merit. So practice Paper-I enough to clear the cutoff, then focus your preparation heavily on General Awareness, English, and your Trade Subject. Also note: Paper-II and Paper-III carry 1 negative mark per wrong answer, so avoid blind guessing. Candidates applying from government jobs must upload a valid NOC at the time of application itself — not later. Apply early; the portal may face heavy load near the 19 June deadline.
